As part of the big move, I have decided to close BrT. This site will remain up for reference, but I will make no new posts after this one, and shortly the Wordpress engine will disappear from behind the scenes and the site will become a static mirror.
But fear not, if you subscribe to my ramblings, for I will continue writing at my new blog, Ideally Blue, now hosted by the fine folks at posterous.com.
If you have ever read BrT or found anything here useful, I’d like to thank you. Hope to see you over at Ideally Blue!
Cheers.

Interesting findings. I have experienced a few of these, for example failing to find a link because it looks too much like an ad block, and I automatically ignore it.

Every once in a while you will come across a page that just doesn’t seem ‘right’. There are three elements of a website that can be harmed by bad practice:
- The website lacks something in its design.
- The content is written badly.
- The search engines don’t like something about the site.
Considering the three points above, this article will explains the do’s and dont’s of certain design habits.
Nice set of recommendations.
